Recently graduated from Nogizaka46, Asuka Saito has released a new photo book and it's making a splash.
Saito, who is half-Myanmarese and half-Japanese, was a first-generation member of Nogizaka46. The 24-year-old graduated the idol group earlier this month.
She was one of the most popular members of the group, having performed with them for over 11 years, and is hoping to use her departure (and the buzz surrounding her graduation concert last week) to launch a solo career.
This week, the first images from her new photo book, Museum, were released. They are semi-nude, with the slinky ...
The former HKT48 idol Haruka Kodama recently appeared on a TV variety show where guests were asked to give their insights on how a couple can improve their relationship.
She gave one suggestion that shocked (or delighted) fans: she said that couples should watch porn together.
On the ABEMA show on February 7, where couples get advice directly from guests in the studio, a female comedian called Renachiru complained that her sex life with her boyfriend (a former host) had declined. She suspects she might be to blame, because she admits imposing a lot of rules on her lover, including blanket ...
This story broke at the end of last year and we sat on it for a few days to see if there were any further developments.
A minor scandal has emerged involving top Nogizaka46 member Yuki Yoda, after the tabloid magazine Weekly Bunshun caught her going to a luxury gym in Ebisu, Tokyo, in which she was allegedly in a room alone with a male trainer for several hours.
The 22-year-old, who joined the idol group in 2016 but came firmly onto our radar when she released her hit photo book in 2020, apparently attends the gym twice a week and has the same male trainer for her sessions.
As noted in its ...
As we were in a bookstore recently perusing the crowded lineup of idol photo books released in the autumn to catch the end-of-year season, we found ourselves returning again and again to the stunning new offering from Yuka Someya.
As regular readers will know, Someya has featured multiple times on this blog.
She has recently established herself as the queen of the hair nude -- the full-frontal nude shoot that is usually allowed in spite of Japan's nominal legal ban on showing genitalia, including bush -- with several such shoots.
Someya is now aged 30 and as sultry and curvy as ever. She ...
Not satisfied with the recent rush of gravure idols' photo books? Even the ones like Minami Yamada's that are semi-nude?
Then you need something more reliable.
Minamo burst into our lives in 2021 when she made the switch from a brief stint in gravure (where she worked as Shizuku Taiyo from 2019) to porn, and hasn't looked back since.
One of the most popular adult video performers working in the industry today, she is currently attacked to porn production company T-Powers continues to release JAV titles (we count something like twice as many releases in 2022 as her debut year).
Her first ...
Three years on from graduating HKT48, Haruka Kodama (兒玉遥) has rewarded her long-term fans with a shoot that shows her butt and lots of side boob, under-boob, and cleavage. We suppose it's a matter of debate whether this constitutes a nude or semi-nude shoot.
Haruppi gets about as close as you can without showing her actual nipples, pulling up her clothes as if to reveal the goodies and letting her top linger just enough over her breasts to protect her modesty.
In one shot of her butt, she's possibly wearing a thong, but in another she's slipping down her denim shorts to reveal those ...
There is something of a minor trend among gravure idols to emphasize their academic background. If they come from a prestigious or famous college, this is often made a significant part of their appeal.
And so it was when Serina Fukui first burst onto the gravure scene a few years ago. The pharmacy student at Keio University -- one of the most prestigious private colleges in Japan -- was praised for her curvy charms and her brains. And it was the latter that made the former even better.
Having graduated from Keio, Fukui now works as a regular pharmacist in Tokyo but has continued her ...
An underground Japanese music idol group has claimed that one of its members will become an adult video star for being the least popular.
Announced on September 16 and apparently running until September 19, the last day of a music festival, the Planck Stars said that the member who got the least number of snapshots taken with fans would be forced to debut in porn. Incidentally, the winner gets a free bicycle.
The group claimed its members devised the campaign themselves.
The original announcement got some attention back in September, but has received renewed outrage on Twitter in the ...
We mentioned earlier this month about the long-awaited follow-up adult video release by Yotsuha Kominato (Rikako Inoue), the former Fairies music idol.
The singer's second AV (1stars00715), which sees Kominato co-star with top male porn performer Shimiken for one of the sexual encounters, comes in the wake of a hugely publicized porn debut in June. Produced and released again by SODstar, the JAV title has now hit the market and the first screen grabs indicate that her slender, pale-skinned body is working overtime once more.
If these images entice you, put some yen down on the table to buy ...
Sumire Yokono suddenly left NMB48 in May 2021 -- shortly after a report broke that went to a hotel with a male celebrity twice her age. Even more shockingly, she was also spotted on a date (six days later) with yet another boyband member, with whom she also spent the night at an expensive hotel.
The resulting scandal sunk her NMB future.
After a year off, the 21-year-old relaunched her career in May this year.
Su-chan is now trying to go it on her own (with a little help from a major modeling agency). She is carving out a career as a gradol and model, and is succeeding: three gravure cover ...
